Adelaide Villas - Reviews and Rates

The City of Churches!

Not a good start for Adelaide, there did not appear to be any more buses to the City Centre after our plane had landed at 10.30pm local time. Shared a taxi with a German couple so it only ended up costing me $10.

Hostel made up for that to an extent, very clean, modern room, nice clean sheets and duvet cover (unlike the last place). F...

Care of Magical Creatures

June is not really the right time to visit Adelaide - it's our fault for staying that extra month! It is raining at regular intervals and not very warm, but as I type it has suddenly got sunny again. Adelaide is as stately as its name, a city of wide grid streets and huge stone buildings with lots of balconies and carvings. It is also very untou...

A Cultural Day

We were really sad to leave les and jackies but have a lot more to see. Good early morning flight but Ian took a sleeping tablet so wasnt functioning on all cylinders on arrival!! We are staying in an apartment hotel-very reasonable,very big and good location. Quite lazy yesterday stroll by the river and then checked out the shops. Today we star...

St Patty's Day

St. Pats Day: The mother of all ****-ups. During the day I explored around Adelaide while Greg stayed at the hostel did laundry and tried to get over a cold. Apparently no one else works either, there were heaps of people everywhere. Rundle Mall was actually quite good and entertaining, there were tons of performers - musicians, magicians, and a...

Yes we are on Holidays!

Hi everyone, Left Melbourne on Saturday morning, arrived for a romantic Valentines dinner in Horsham, where we shared a bowl of wedges. (remember I'm living with a pensioner!!). We then moved onto Cape Jaffa to catch up with more relatives. We had a crayfish (3 and half kilos for those of you who love seafood) for lunch , caught freshly that mor...

Another day in Adelaide

The daytime was pretty much the same with Michelle working and Mitch following his routine. Michelle's trainings were very productive yet time consuming, and she was realizing that her time in the office was going to fly by! The Australian work environment is very similar to the U.S., whereas the Thai and Malaysian offices had more differences. ...

A dorm with 2 other boys (i'mnot a fan)

The first thing we notice as we walked out of the airport in Adelaide,it was cold ,a really cold wind the first time on the trip we had to put our matching coats on .Beacause Australia is a little more expensive we decided we would try staying in a four man dorm room.We caught the shuttle bus from the airport to the hostel , checked in and went ...

Adelaide

And so with the thrill and activity of Tasmania I headed onto Adelaide. Having travelled the east coast of Australia last year, I had decided to travel across the south coast this time hence the visit to Adelaide although there is not much to report about my time here....as was predicted by some of my australian friends! Perhaps I am being a lit...

Merry Christmas

I would just like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. It is my first one away from home and kinda lonely. It is muggy and looks like rain so it is a little reminder of California. Mike and Jon say it is rainy where they are too. The rain came just to remind the Novato travellers a little of thier home and families. How nice. On your Christmas, b...

Day in Adelaide

Today we had a full day in Adelaide. Kellen got up and counted the trolleys at the square. Add one more item on the list of Kellen's favorite things in Australia. So far the list looks like: 1) Monorail in Sydney 2) Hilton Hotel in Sydney (plus every other hotel, really) 3) Trains, Skyrails and Trollies (tie) 4) The Australian kid's show Hi-5 5)...
